'Big Day's' Big Day: Nov. 28

Having pushed "The Knights of Prosperity" to later in the season, ABC is giving one of its other new comedies that show's intended timeslot. Eventually.

The network says "Big Day," a show about the various calamities on the day of a young couple's wedding, on Tuesday, Nov. 28. It will air at 9 p.m. ET, pairing with "Help Me Help You" to form, as things stand now, the only block of comedies on ABC's schedule. (The network hasn't announced its plans for 8 p.m. Tuesdays once "Dancing with the Stars" ends; it's possible returning sitcoms "George Lopez" and "According to Jim" could fill that hour.)

ABC had originally planned to air "The Knights of Prosperity" at 9 p.m. Tuesdays, starting Oct. 17. Earlier this week, however, the network decided to hold off on the show, possibly until midseason, so it can give "Knights" a better marketing push. After its premiere, "Big Day" will likely have the advantage of airing new episodes against what are likely to be post-sweeps repeats on other networks.

The show stars Marla Sokoloff ("The Practice") and Josh Cooke ("Four Kings") as a couple about to be married. Told more or less in real time, a la "24," it will follow the minor and major crises of the wedding day: including the father of the bride's (Kurt Fuller, "Desperate Housewives") doubts about his future son-in-law, an ex-boyfriend still carrying a torch for the bride and a battle between mother (Wendie Malick, "Just Shoot Me") and daughter over what kind of salad to serve.
